This is a class blog for the students of POLSCI 426: Congressional Politics at the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee.
I'm Gonna Get $600
There are some interesting differences between the passed House plan and what the Senate apparently wants - caps on tax rebates, changes in business loss deductions, payments to Social Security recipients, etc. Mostly a debate over how much to spend - roughly $196B Senate version vs. $161 for the House. If they're really convinced that this will stimulate the economy that may or may not be in a recession (depending on who you ask and when you ask them), what's another $30 billion?
